    hairs in active growth phase but abnormally weak and thin

    Dystrophic anagen hairs are hairs that are in the active growth phase (anagen) but are abnormally thin, weak, and often break easily due to damage or underlying health conditions. This can be caused by factors such as nutritional deficiencies, autoimmune disorders like alopecia areata, or physical trauma to the hair follicles.
